Kfz 13 Adler 1/72 FTF

Painting started:

While i had the light colour on i added the rivets in few places. It was easier at this stage instead of after the primer. Light colour made the dark rivets stand out.

Decals:

BMW R 75 Bike build

After completing the construction of the sidecar i started building the bike itself.
Really slow work, as the parts require lot of attention. The kit shows it's age here.
Additionally the frame was warped.
Body of the engine was put together, and painted various Alclad paints: alu, dark alu, polished alu, steel, stainless steel.
Tricky part is, the body of the engine needs to be put into the frame, and then the frame can be joined, and painted.
I used the hairspray technique with base of Panzer Grey, and Dunkelgelb overspray.

Added the seat rivets, and knee protectors.
Kit knee protectors were so thick, that i had to scratch the new parts from tin.
I also added the small pocket on the right protector.

Mentor- figure of the prey

Second figure for the Mentor diorama.

It is Gustav from Maschinen Krieger also in 1/35

I used Hornet head.

Painted with AK Colour Modulation set for russian vehicles.

...and all dry fitted to the base. Decals, oil paints, and chipping next. Should be done in a few days.
